Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for adjusting one of the bearing blocks of a roller in a roller group for supporting and moving an endless moved web, such as the traveling screen or conveyor belt in a papermaking plant.
- the bearing block is disposed on a slide which is adjustable along at least one guide rail and which can be adjusted relative to a carrying structure in the conveying direction of the roller section by an actuating device. As a result, the angular position of the roller mounted in the bearing block is variable relative to the conveying direction of the roller section.
- the orientation of a roller of the roller section can be varied by adjusting one of the two bearing blocks in the conveying direction of the roller section.
- a piston/cylinder assembly is arranged below the bearing block.
- the cylinder is thereby rigidly fastened in the structure of the plant below the bearing block and, furthermore, the bearing block is carried by the piston which can be adjusted in the conveying direction of the roller section within the cylinder.
- the piston By the displacement of the piston, the angular orientation of the roller carried by the bearing block relative to the conveying direction of the roller section can be adjusted, with the result that the direction of movement of the band can be influenced.
- the prior art system is disadvantageous, however, in that the forces absorbed by the bearing block are transmitted via the piston to the cylinder, thus causing a high load to be exerted on the seals between the piston and the cylinder.
- the prior art device is disadvantageous in that the piston/cylinder assembly is located below the associated bearing block. Access to the piston/cylinder assembly for maintenance or repair is difficult.
- European published patent application EP 733 736 A2 discloses a device that avoids this disadvantage by providing, on the slide, a carriage which is provided with running rollers and which can be moved relative to the carrying structure by a further actuator. Even though that prior art device is advantageous relative to the previously known art, it nevertheless has the disadvantage that it must be dismantled completely if the running rollers or other components are damaged or broken, so that the damaged or inoperative components can be removed and replaced with new components.
- a device for adjusting a bearing block of a roller supporting an endless web traveling along a conveying direction such as, for instance, a traveling screen, a conveyor belt, or the like in a papermaking plant.
- the device comprises:
- a carrying structure such as a stationary machine frame, and at least one guide rail (or a plurality of mutually spaced-apart, parallel guide rails) mounted to the carrying structure;
- an adjusting actuator for adjusting the slide along the guide rail for displacing the slide relative to the carrying structure in a conveying direction
- a sliding element of a highly slideable material releasably fastened on the slide and arranged between the slide and the guide rail.
- the orientation of the rotational axis of the roller is adjusted relative to the conveying direction of a web supported on the roller.
- a fastening element is releasably fastened to the slide for fixing a position of the sliding element.
- the guide rail is a cylindrical rod
- the sliding element is a sleeve
- the sliding element is a slotted sleeve.
- the sliding element is a multipart sliding element, for instance a two-part sliding element.
- the sliding element is formed with a profiling on its outer peripheral surface and its inner peripheral surface.
- the profiling comprises ribs extending in an actuating direction, i.e. parallel to the guide rail.
- the sliding element is formed with an annular rib on its outer peripheral surface, and the slide is formed with a corresponding annular groove adapted to receive the annular rib.
- FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a device according to the invention taken along the line I—I in FIG. 3;
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the device according to the invention taken along the line II—II in FIG. 3;
- FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the device taken along the line III—III in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view of a detail of FIG. 1, on an enlarged scale
- FIG. 5A is a side elevational view of a first embodiment of a sliding sleeve
- FIG. 5B is an end view thereof
- FIG. 5C is a side elevational view of a second embodiment of the sliding sleeve
- FIG. 5D is an end view thereof.
- FIG. 6 is an end view of the first sliding sleeve at a stage when it is attached to a guide rod.
- a device which includes a carrying plate 1 fastened by means of screw bolts 11 to a structure of a plant which has a multiplicity of rollers for supporting and moving an endless band.
- the carrying plate 1 is formed with slots through which the screw bolts 11 pass. Accordingly, the plate 1 can be adjusted in the conveying direction of the roller section.
- the carrying plate 1 is formed with lateral, upwardly projecting flanges 12 .
- a slide 2 is guided in the flanges 12 . The slide 2 can likewise be adjusted in the conveying direction of the roller section by means of a spindle 21 .
- the lower section of the slide 2 has a box-shaped profile 22 which is guided between the flanges 12 of the carrying plate 1 .
- the slide 2 has two guide rods 23 which serve to guide a second slide 3 .
- a bearing block 4 is rigidly fastened to the slide 3 .
- the bearing block 4 has a bearing 41 for one of the rollers of the roller section.
- the second slide 3 which is U-shaped in longitudinal section, is formed in each case with two bores 32 and 34 which are arranged in the two legs 31 and 33 and through which the guide rods 23 pass.
- a piston/cylinder assembly 5 is disposed laterally outside the bearing block 4 and serves to displace the second slide 3 .
- the piston/cylinder assembly 5 consists of a cylinder 51 with two chambers 52 and 53 that can be acted upon by a pressure medium via orifices 54 and 55 .
- a piston 56 is arranged within the cylinder chambers 52 and 53 .
- the position of the piston 56 i.e., the relative sizes of the two chambers 52 and 53
- the piston 56 is connected releasably to the leg 33 of the second slide 3 by means of a piston rod 57 .
- the entire device is surrounded by a housing 20 which is also releasable, with the result that it can be removed from the first slide 2 .
- the guide rods 23 and the second slide 3 displaceable along the latter, are thereby accessible.
- sliding sleeves 6 are provided for mounting the second slide 3 on the guide rods 23 .
- the sliding sleeves are inserted into the bores 32 and 34 of the second slide 3 .
- the sliding sleeves 6 are designed with ribs 61 on their outer surface and on their inner surface.
- the sliding sleeves 6 are formed with projections 62 that run along a ring and that are assigned an annular groove 36 in each case in the legs 31 and 33 .
- the fastening sleeves 7 can be screwed to the associated legs 31 and 33 of the second slide 3 . As a result, the sliding sleeves 6 inserted into the bores 32 and 34 are fixed in position.
- the sliding sleeves 6 are produced from a polymer which contains fibers and solid lubricants.
- the sliding sleeves may also consist of two semicylindrical parts 6 a and 6 b.
- the first slide 2 is adjusted with the spindle 21 into a position in which the bearing block 4 assumes a middle position.
- the roller mounted in the latter forms a right angle relative to the conveying direction of the roller section. If the angular position of one roller or a plurality of rollers is to be adjusted relative to the conveying direction of the roller section, so as to correct the movement of the band which rests on the rollers, then one of the inner chambers 52 and 53 of the cylinder 5 is acted upon by the pressure medium via one of the orifices 54 and 55 . As a result, the piston 56 is adjusted.
- the second slide 3 is thereby displaced by means of the piston rod 57 and the bearing block 4 is adjusted in the conveying direction of the roller section.
- the angular position (the rotational axis) of the roller mounted in the bearing block 4 relative to the conveying direction of the roller section is thereby adjusted. As a consequence, the direction of movement of the band is corrected.
- the cover 20 is removed and the fastening sleeves 7 are released from the legs 31 and 33 of the second slide 3 and displaced along the guide rods 23 .
- the sliding sleeves 6 can thereby also be displaced until they are located completely outside the bores 32 and 34 . Since the sliding sleeves 6 are slotted and are elastically deformable, they can be removed from the guide rods 23 and replaced by new sliding sleeves 7 , as illustrated in FIG. 6 . Insofar as the sliding sleeves 6 are in two parts (FIGS. 5C, 5 D), they can just as easily be removed and replaced by new ones.
